Interview with Ginny Fite, Author of No End of Bad

What genre do
you write and why?

I write in the genre the story demands. That may sound
odd but the story comes first. Only as I’m writing the story do I realize it’s
a mystery or a thriller or it falls in the wide basket of women’s fiction.
Often I meet the characters first and then a bit of setting turns up. Sometimes
I know immediately, for instance if a dead body lands on the first page, that
story is probably going to be a mystery. Sometimes I don’t know for several
months where I’m going. This may not be the most efficient method but it works
for me. Of my four published novels, three are mysteries and the most recent, No End of Bad, is a thriller. The novel
I’m currently working on is women’s fiction with magical realism elements
(ghosts!).

Tell us about
your latest book.

What would you do if your husband was arrested by the
FBI, then died in custody, and it seemed like the whole world was out to get
you? Hide? Run! That’s what Margaret Turnbull and her daughter Melissa do in No End of Bad when their whole world
literally blows up and there’s no safe place left anywhere. As they run, they
discover they’re far more resilient and resourceful than they knew. Helped by
people intent on stopping an international drug cartel with connections all the
way up to senior personnel in the White House, they try to hold a funeral service
only to be attacked again.

Chock full of bad guys and good guys, No End of Bad features strong female
characters who know what they want and are determined to do whatever it takes
to get it.

My favorite character in No End of Bad is Melissa, fifteen years old, nerdy, tomboyish,
beautiful in her own way, and daring. If I’d had a daughter, I would want her
to be like Melissa.

Where can a
reader purchase your book?

No End of Bad is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, kobo, and wherever
books are sold.

What is your
work in progress? Tell us about it.

I’m in the last phases of completing a novel titled Clarinda in which recently widowed
Sylvie Andrus and her young son, alone in a new town far from home, must
solve a two-century old mystery to rid themselves of the ghost who haunts them.
The story is set in a tiny river town near Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay. I can
almost hear the gulls squawking as I type this.
